1905: Inspector C. E. Fairlie When he retired on pension in 1905, Inspector C. E. Fairlie took charge for a time until he returned to duty in Zululand.

In his semi-naval uniform, I can quite imagine it happening; his fine figure and imposing appearance, wearing his habitual eye-glass could have made just the right impression? 40
